Le Club Voyage is the loyalty program of Azamara Club Cruises. The company, a division of Royal Caribbean, is a small ship line focused on unique experiences in ports the larger ships cannot visit. According to Azamara, “you’ll always enjoy a host of unmatched inclusive amenities—such as standard spirits, international beers and wines, gratuities, and an AzAmazing Evenings event—all with our compliments. You’ll also love the feeling of community you won’t find anywhere else, thanks to an attentive and genuinely friendly staff who know your name, tastes and preferences, and a crew who really like to mingle with guests, point out special things at sea and onshore, and go above and beyond your expectations.” Azamara features a loyalty program that also goes beyond expectations.
